NeverEnding Story, January 2022

Translated into Chinese by Chen-ou Liu:


alpenglow
a pika gathers stems
of light

Commended
2019 A Little Iris Haiku Contest


Chen-ou Liu's Comments:

Inspiring and evocative L1 sets the scene and mood while the unexpected yet visually fresh and effective image of Ls 2&3, "stems" of "light" enhances the imagistic aspect of this unusual haiku about a rare mountain-dwelling mammal in alpenglow.
